Ajahn Brahm talks about the real goal and meaning of meditation and reminds us that meditation is a great way of overcoming stress and improving our health. Ajahn explains how meditation and enlightenment happen by going against the stream that is against craving, restlessness, thinking, worrying and so on. Instead of going outwards we go in the opposite direction inwards, into the body, into silence and into the breath. This Buddha Dhamma talk was given by Ajahn Brahm at the WFB Sanook Meditation Day in Bangkok, Thailand, during 2007.
